Worried about rising case rates, Jonathan Van-Tam, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer, has told members of the public to receive their booster shots and wear masks, while also commenting that too many think that the pandemic is already over. The Mirror has more.
He warned the every day actions of Brits will be crucial in determining how bad the pandemic gets.
Britain has had among the worst infection rates in Europe over the past month, and few restrictions to stop the spread of Covid.
So far the Government has resisted calls to launch its ‘Plan B’, which would see a return to home working and mandatory face mask wearing.
“The rates are still very high at the moment”, Professor Van-Tam told BBC Breakfast and BBC Radio 5 Live.
“They are higher than in most of Europe. And we are running quite hot – I think that’s the right expression.
“And, of course, it’s of concern to scientists that we are running this hot this early in the autumn season.
“And so, from that perspective, I’m afraid it’s caution, followed by caution, and we need to watch these data very carefully indeed over the next days and weeks.”
He added: “Too many people believe that this pandemic is now over. I personally feel there are some hard months to come in the winter and it is not over.
“The caution that people take or don’t take in terms of interacting with each other: that is going to be a big determinant in what happens between now and the darkest months of the winter”.
Despite a recent 10% dip in weekly cases, the UK remains at the top of the European charts when it comes to daily Covid infections.

Actually Penfold – it is
”…you will be held responsible…” – A sequence of legal events…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScC0sSYuDsQ
Exacty….. did too many people think the war was over a ridiculous statement when you consider the last 18 months has been about what people have experienced personally… they are no NOT experiencing the same thing NOW and can conclude form this it IS over incerdibly patronising statement
Or Morocca Mole
Penfold , as you say, bears a close resemblance
Penfold was an adorable and loyal mole sidekick. Not an ugly little war criminal. Stop it!
Has it even began using the definition in use before they changed it?
Just another “public health official” scared of losing their new found power and influence. Ignore.
Witless, fan tam and un-balanced being Pharma, Pharma/IT would have topple before they lost their power and influence
“Waaaaah! The pandemic CAN’T be over! I want to keep on feeling important!”
You said it!!! ill have to go back to mediocrity and normal restaurants hes thinking , no doubt
“Too many people believe that this pandemic is now over. I personally feel there are some hard months to come in the winter and it is not over…….The caution that people take or don’t take in terms of interacting with each other: that is going to be a big determinant in what happens between now and the darkest months of the winter”.
What he means is that ADE infections could have potentially dreadful effects on the population.
But anyway…..if two jabs don’t work – why is Van Tam so sure that three will?
This really is the most appalling fraud.
These badly tested and miss-labelled COVID vaccines came too quick to market – what they be are leaky transfection gene-therapies. What’s now becoming patently clear to a growing band of medics worldwide is that [classic] SARS Cov2 and its now continuously mutating infectious variants is in fact endemic, it’s a type of coronavirus that’s here to stay with us for ever after.
Thank Gates, GAVI, Fauci, Bat Lady, EcoHealth Alliance and all the other global virology lab players involved that have their dirty sticky fingers all over this release.
Zero COVID?
PMSL
What these boffins have created is the perfect bio-security booster subscription service – for them and GloboCap – albeit a shitty one for you as injecting people with out-of-date behind the mutation curve mRNA/DNA tech guarantees – as the months roll-on with booster jabs – they become less and less effective but accumulatively multiply the bad side-affect profiles while overwriting and weakening your body’s own natural respiratory disease defences.
See what they did there?
Are they injecting us with Lemsip for godsake soon my booster will need a booster and soon i will be walking around with a IV drip full of vaccine so i can take it all the time .What happened to the widely held theory tht Covid 19 isnt actually that much to worry about .Its hard to tell really so many many people survived Covid or didnt eevn get it but they have simply been forgotten outrageous !!
It’s like Ssoooo Overrr
I read that in a Valley Girl accent.
Correct. Essex Girl would have an “innit” on the end
I heard Moon Zappa’s voice.
did it ever start?? really????
Yes.. in the minds of some sly Chinese and some panicky Italians terrible combination
All that fake TV footage.
The sheeple were promised freedom, initially, when the vulnerable were fake vaccinated. We are now heading for 5-11 year olds, following Biden again, who are not even going to notice a cold. They know these jabs are not working, and are hurting the under 60s more than helping. They had no Plan B after hitching their wagon to “vaccines”, so now they are blaming the people they are supposed to protect. Where was the NHS, and where are GPs?
Just look at this c**t………’CONTROL THE VIRUS’.
He may as well have said ‘STOP LEAVES FALLING OFF TREES IN AUTUMN’.
An excellent analogy. It never ceases to amaze me that supposedly intelligent people think you can control a virus.
The same supposedly intelligent people who think they can control the climate.
… and – as of yesterday – are convinced that they’re nature’s chosen people on an urgent mission to save a fragile planet. Whoever wrote that line must live an interestingly distorted universe.
The planet is fine:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W33HRc1A6c
It never ceases to amaze me that people seriously think, Intelligent people think you can control a virus.
In the same way they think the economy can be controlled following the lockdowns. Or the temperature of the planet over the next 30 years. Or screwing with the immune system etcetera, etcetera……..
Interseting though is some kind of health.clinical .doctory sort of guy He doesnt seem to have passed his 11 plus
One way might be to line up all of SAGE/DHSC/MHRA and apply the “Rule of 7.62” to them all….
According to the likes of John Snow, leaves are falling off the trees because of “climate change”, another modelled myth.
I’ve always wondered about Snow’s long tenure at his job. His voice isn’t mellifluous, he’s not that telegenic and I don’t think much of his journalistic skills either. He must have something really good on whoever’s at the top at C4.
Same goes for Krishnan Guru-Smugchops, come to that. (Not that I’ve watched them for a few years past.)
why dont we employ peole to stick them back on again
We should send 5 year olds up trees to stick them back on and stop them from falling on granny.
How do we control the virus we cant control a bunch of GPs and they have brains.Moronic statements from morons who know the gold rush is over
Can’t help wondering if the messaging on his pedestal is actually supposed to read as:
‘Stay [in] Control. Save Alert [that] The Virus Lives’
After all, this is the biggest psychological warfare ever.
Stay Alert: Control Lives, Save the Virus.
An more honest caption would read:
DON’T : BELIEVE : A WORD
The movie They Live is looking more pertinent as the years pass:

It’s been a long three weeks to “flatten the curve”?
They have changed the definition of a week, to a undisclosed period of time, because they “follow the science”
Take away the bogus PCR test ‘casedemic’ and the false designation of non-covid deaths as ‘covid deaths’ and there never was a pandemic. This isnt ‘covid denial’, its just straightforward common sense and honesty.
Yep science does seem to trump let’s-pretend The Science before too long. I’m sure we won’t be allowed to take your sweeties away though.
They are making up their own “science” as they go along to suit whatever narrative they intend to push, sorry I meant nudge there.
The proof for what I have just written lies in the fact that people who have been vaccinated have died in such huge numbers, which for previous vaccination campaigns would have seen the vaccine withdrawn from the market, and the manufacturer subjected to lawsuits. That hasn’t happened in this case, despite the calls of many eminently qualified people in this field, and not only that but the manufacturers cannot be held legally liable for the deaths and injuries which have resulted.
“The caution that people take or don’t take in terms of interacting with each other: that is going to be a big determinant in what happens between now and the darkest months of the winter”.
No – This was true of the summers you stole pretending HI was a myth and under 65’s were at risk.
Stop all testing except for those in genuine need of hospitalisation and the UK might have the lowest ‘infection’ rate in Europe. The Covidian peasantry still can’t grasp that excess testing produces excess cases or that cases do not equate to actual illness or imminent death.
“Jonathan Van-Tam, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer, has told members of the public to receive their booster shots and wear masks…”
“Britain has had among the worst infection rates in Europe over the past month…”
It has been a cracking success this ‘vaccination’ programme hasn’t it...
And masks have really worked well (not).
He is working directly for Satan
And you can easily spot Satan, he uses heavy spectacles and wears pink pullovers. He also waves his arms high in the air whenever he’s lying, which seems to be most of the time.
“…we are running quite hot. I think that’s the right expression.”
Yes, as in the flames of hell are licking at your ankles!
Van-Tam? Didn’t he recently tell us that the lockdowns had impaired our immunity? And that we should stop eating meat? The man’s a quack at best.
As per everything to do with the Scamdemic anything and everything purportedly to do with maintaining good health will be the opposite of their ‘scientific’ pronouncements.
Another apparatchik doing the bidding of the administrative blob. Probably the most patronising of all of them too IMO.
So when is it over ? Insane prick. Stop wasting tax payer money (well partly) on useless community testing and you will find we are down to around 250 “cases” a day. You are a waste of skin.
£600,000 Big Pharma man enters the Booker Prize for fiction!
Jonny – Here is the news: There never was a real ‘pandemic’.
I accept there was something in March and April 2020.
It was over by the end of April (and would have been without lockdown)
Since then its just been endemic with waves coming and going – not epidemic though
And as its completely harmless to people who aren’t mortally ill – it was never something to throw the 2011 pandemic plan out for – the plan that said don’t lockdown
Despite the best efforts of the UK’s truly world-beating PCR testing machinery, we are running decidedly less hot than this time last year and even despite the fidgeting with the hospitalization numbers (25% openly admitted to be fiction, hence, presumably at least 75% fabricated to order), things aren’t really going to plan.
Only the pandemic of independent press conferences of so-called government advisors isn’t yet over.
Luke – “worried about rising case rates” … stop right there. Your job as a journalist is not to assume and assure us that Van Tam is telling the truth. Your job as a journalist is always to think: in what way is this bastard lying to us? Even if it is Mother T.
We know Van Tam is lying about his motivations because we know masks don’t work. And why should people who’ve had boosters wear masks if the boosters are effective?
“Immediately after the end of the Climate Change conference, Van Tam has demanded a public increase in mask wearing” would have been better.
Good points. We know Van Tam is lying, he knows damn well he is lying too.
“There is no evidence that general wearing of face masks by the public who are well affects the spread of the disease in our society,” Jonathan Van-Tam, England’s Deputy Chief Medical Officer, said at a government news conference.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-britain-masks-idUSKBN21L2P1
And I think that the public has realised that. Mask wearing at my local supermarket now down to 20%, social distancing and one way traffic went out of the window weeks ago. Still some maskoids wearing them whilst driving alone in their cars though, although mercifully few.
Boosters macht frei?
Shouldn’t that be: Boosters Machen Frei? I’ll get my coat…
Yep.
Die nächste Impfung macht frei.
[The next vaccination will set you free]
I suggest he shoves his mask and his booster up his ar$e
I agree, but how is he going to lecture us if he does that?
He’s doubtless got minions to do that for him.
Vaccines don’t make a blind bit of difference, says Jonathan Van Tam, hoping people won’t notice that vaccines have not prevented lockdown.
He is a witch doctator, not a scientist. He is Trofim Lysenko Junior.
I’m not sure I’m on board with everything being said here, but it is well worth a read:
Stupid and Evil in Equal Measures
‘Very soon, millions of children will be vaccinated against a virus that is less dangerous to them than influenza. These useless vaccinations will kill some of them, and they will not save any lives. As outrages go, this one is very far up there. It is also the latest in a long line: Many countries have for months observed a sustained trend of elevated mortality in younger demographics, almost surely the result of vaccine-induced myocarditis. It is now plain that the press will downplay indefinitely widespread economic and supply chain chaos, following months of unprecedented and totally pointless closures. Suddenly millions of people cannot leave their supposedly open, democratic countries, or engage in economic activity, without submitting to medical treatments they don’t want. On top of all this comes months of media hysteria and repeated population-wide house arrests—all to box in a virus that, as pandemics go, clocks in at merely somewhat-bad.
‘A big problem, is how to understand this. As a rule, I am open to all plausible theories, and I find many conspiratorial approaches to the Corona phenomenon to be spiritually or metaphorically accurate, even if I disagree with their details. By and large, though, I’ve resisted interpretations that detect a specific, malevolent plan behind these events. I’ve preferred to see this cascade of unrelenting, self-imposed destruction as the fruit of bureaucratic incompetence and elite stupidity. Many disagree with me, including friends like Sandpiper, who are not content with leaving the whole stage to failure. At the link you’ll find an abstract formulation of this view, which is particularly attractive, because it does not require that we accept any particular theory, but merely a model of what is happening. Sandpiper posits an “inner conspiracy” and an “outer conspiracy.” The outer conspiracy is “the way the agenda is sold … what the True Believers actually think they are doing.” The “inner conspiracy,” meanwhile, “is the small circle of people … who created the vision for their own benefit, because they have political goals they want to achieve.”’

Whereas I think that too many of the genocidal tyrants who presently make up governments all over the planet are walking free. They should be in prisons.

Jonathan Van-Tam Declares That Too Many Think
the Pandemic Is OverYou’ve had your five minutes of fame … now do us all a favour and FECK OFF!
Yes. Would Messrs. Van Tam, Whitty, Valance, Johnson, Ferguson and Hopson please leave our lives and not return.
After all, JVT’s job and power depends upon the pandemic continuing for many years…
Remember folks that this man attended, along with loads of colleagues from around the world, a conference (hosted by The Chatham House Institute in London) in early 2019 about how to propagandise a ‘future pandemic’, where his Belgian colleague gave a hour long presentation as a ‘how-to’ guide.
Oddly enough, the video of this has now been deleted from YouTube. Fortunately, Dave Cullen managed to review said veideo before that (he likely has a personal copy ‘downloaded’ from YT for journalistic purposes) where he shows what it was all about:
https://www.bitchute.com/video/Hmxo720ccw4V/
or
https://odysee.com/@ComputingForever:9/media-coordination-how-its-done:d
He has LOTS of other great commentary videos on the pandemic across both platforms (his main channel [Computing Forever] was yeeted by YouTube because of ‘misinformation’ on COVID which amazingly is all coming true).
Oh, i’m under no illusion they won’t let this end anytime soon.
My every day actions are to ignore that ignore the utter shit that comes out of this unelected porcine looking freaks mouth. Plan B, C, D, E, F. Get fucked.
So within last couple of weeks 1 friend was a ‘case’ – positive LFT & PCR (had to test as a teacher) he was so NOT unwell says if he hadn’t tested he would never have known he was supposed to have covid! His wife had no symptoms but didn’t test, both of them AZ jabbed but refusing booster. Another couple friends of ours both unjabbed tested positive (again LFTs for work) but they didn’t bother to go for PCRs or report their friends as close contacts. Again barely unwell! Hubby & I don’t test whether or not we have the sniffles or feel a bit rubbish occasionally!
It’s OK, VT, I don’t think it’s over: I KNOW it never even started!
Since when has Van Tam been hanging out on ‘the hood’? ‘Running hot’? I don’t think that means what he thinks it means. First, it appears to be a US expression in origin. Makes me wonder if it is a phrase that maybe Bill Gates used on his recent visit here. Did Van Tam misunderstand the meaning and has actually now let slip what was actually said in behind the scenes discussions?
Note that he specifically says, and repeats, “we [my emphasis] are running hot” not that ‘the virus is running hot’. Did someone use this phrase (using “we”) within his earshot?
According to this online urban dictionary:
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Running%20Hot
i.e. narcissistic personality disorder
Running on empty more like and he knows it.
Another foreigner telling the British how to behave.
Tomfoolery. How many are allowed to think it is ‘still’ a thing?
Van Tam, I’ve had nearly two years of your lies. Fuck off.
The pandemic is over.
What we have us a plague of van Damns.
Time for a dambuster.
Oh P*ss off Penfold! Too Many In Government Don’t Want This Pandemic To Be Over either! Too many have way Too Much invested in it!
V-T’s another of those ‘dead behind the eyes’ types. I wonder did anyone ask him whether the UK covid stats were as far out as those of Italy?
Promotion of the jabs as the only way out was always the wrong course of action, succinctly explained here by Paul Elias Alexander. Another individual, like Mike Yeadon, who has put his head above the parapet repeatedly against the covid tyrannical response.
Pretending We Can Vaccinate Our Way Out of This Pandemic Is Dangerous — Especially for Kids • Children’s Health Defense (childrenshealthdefense.org)
Wham bam no thank you Van Tam, you can simply do one!!
Never started you Cunt!
What he means is too many people think Van Tam is over .Egos hanging on
Nobody cares about Van-Tam, bring in JC van Damme.
I have asked this question before but never got an answer. The curve for UK positive tests is flatlining rather than going up or down. This doesn’t seem to fit with what one would normally expect for virus behaviour. Any ideas?
Lets just say it again pretend pandemic Chinese took thre piss we believed it now cant admit were wrong its not much of a script is it ?
” I sit by the river and watch the corpses go by”
And boy, will I be waiting for you Van-Tam….
I would like to quote Kenneth Wolstenholme.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg2CXkJVCHk
Nice one! But the truth is that it never really started except in the eyes of the public health maniacs and politicians who collectively stole nearly two years of our lives and living standards. Never forget, never forgive!
Van Tam is an Asian / Chinese name, that explains it all then?
Sack Van Tam and the others who love prolonging this to keep themselves in the public eye.
Absolutely, in the last week we have seen both him and Harries trying to invoke re-masking by stealth.
Has there been any investigation into Van Tams and his families finances?
They test for the flu since they’ve never isolated Covid-19. Which makes me wonder how they can tell there is a delta variant. They never isolated the virus but they use a test to show the damage of a solution does on monkey kidney cells then show the cellular debris as proof of the virus. So, they can use this method to claim an UNENDING! amount of variants. A lot of cancers and “viruses” are probably just different forms of parasites. Since the tests can’t differentiate between cold and flu and covid then doesn’t that mean ivermectin cures both the cold and the flu? Welcome to “they’ve been lying to us our entire lives about everything”. Get your Ivermectin while you still can! https://health.p0l.org
One thing i’ve learned over the past 40 years or so, is that when a ‘deputy’ delivers the info its mostly, if not all, BS.
Evil goblin.
Anyone seen the video of Van-Tam going into the MoD (!) for a meeting with Pfizer? This gross little goblin is in deep. Manifest his downfall.
The pandemic will never be over, will it?
Is it a rule that Covid Fascists have to be grotesquely ugly, like villains in badly drawn strip cartoons? Is it a requirement for the job, or do they get that way through doing the job?
Nobody likes the ugly gits. Only other ugly control freaks give them a job.
Last sentence of the extract not true. Absolute numbers highest, percentage of positive tests is not. We have higher numbers because we do more tests!
Stay Alert ? Control Lives , Save The Virus
So Mr van Tam, you are an expert in influenza, epidemics and pandemic preparedness.
You are mandating that masks and booster shots are necessary – lets examine that:
Lastly, no manufacturer of these gene editing therapies have claimed that their jabs confer immunity to or transmission of SARS COV2. Your government’s website also repeats this . It is claimed that symptoms may be reduced in severity; but then the early treatment regimes followed in the US, India and elsewhere are proven to do exactly this, reduce hospitilisations, do not involve draconian and irresponsible policies such as lockdown and “vaccine passports”, do not require sections of the economies in these areas to be shut down and seem not to have led to the vast increase in mental heath illnesses and cancellations of non CV19 treatments – both of which are known hallmarks of YOUR strategy – and elements of which have been actively briefed against by the Government for whom you work.
Odd , isn’t it; but then I am no scientist and could be very wrong – if so “Please put me straight”
Oh, I forgot, remind me when “your” Government downgraded SARS COV2 from a highly infectious disease…March when?
So we now have a tablet the keeps the vulnerable with covid out of hospital therefore the Covid panicdemic is over!! The Profs of doom will have to slink back to where ever the lurk
